The moors roll wide and windswept here, with Bodmin's granite tors brooding on the horizon and that particular Cornish light that turns the gorse electric yellow against grey stone.

This is a straightforward spot for tourers and campervans, tucked into the edge of Caradon country where walkers and dog owners come to lose themselves on old mine trails and open heath. The site keeps things simple — pitches for caravans and motorhomes, the kind of place where you park up, brew a cup of tea, and plan your route across the moor or down to the coast. Dog policy is flexible, so worth a call if you're travelling with a hound keen for proper off-lead rambles.

Onsite facilities aren't heavily advertised, so best to ring ahead and check what's available when you arrive, including whether campfires are allowed during your dates. It's a quiet, no-fuss base rather than a bustling family park — the sort of site that suits self-sufficient campers who've come for the landscape, not the entertainment.
